Your EEG samples and teachings have helped tremendously in real-world applications as well as study guide material. Thank you kindly for offering you time and effort! You are very knowledgeable but break down concepts so that they are digestible to practically all levels of education. You do this with sounding as if you are speaking down to your audience, which is difficult to do.
I'm Thankful for your kindly sharing your experience with others! AND I have Q about the last case (CJD), you explained EEG as 1Hz GPDs and my Q is "how should we count these generalized waves and epileptiform activities (to say more or less 2,5Hz)". Actual counts per second or how many waves per/sec according to wave length? It will be better to do some teaching-explanatory video about that with examples.
Hi dr, if the patient is on aed or sedatives.. For eg icu patients.. Will bed side eeg show any abnormalities?? What is the purpose of doing bed side eeg in such patients?
Barbiturates and and benzodiazepines increase the beta activity on the EEG. Some seizure medications will suppress epileptiform discharges. Bed side EEG is useful to look at the depth of coma, reactivity of EEG and also to rule out non-convulsive electrographic seizures.
